When the RE market was peaking (and even post-peak) in the Reno area, everybody's best friend the Squid was trying to muscle in on the Reno water. So the Squid is undoubtedly working behind the scenes in Vegas also. newsreview.com ". . . A memo from Reno finance director Andrew Green to the TMWA board members said, “The city of Reno has been approached by Goldman Sachs regarding a long-term asset leasing prospect that could potentially generate significant cash for the three TMWA entities. The program would allow TMWA to lease its assets for 50 years and receive an up-front cash payment.” . . ." Sounds kinda like the life insurance settlements they're peddling now - or as Henry Hill said about the mob, "Your murderers come with smiles. They come as your friends.
